Help.

Yoda:

Points (−7, 5) and (7, 5) on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two players of a football team: Which statement best describes the relationship between the positions of the two players?

Yoda:

1 attachment
441204:

aight so 1st the distance looks very eqaul

441204:

ones negative

441204:

the 7

KjSaif:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @441204 aight so 1st the distance looks very eqaul \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) yeah, it's reflected. @Yoda remember how we showed you the y-axis relfection?

Yoda:

Yes

441204:

its kinda like a snadwich when u fold it it matches kinda like the axis of symmetry

Yoda:

Mhm

KjSaif:

Well then there's your answer. The two points are related by the reflection of the y axis. What were the answer choices?

Yoda:

Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different. Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different. Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different. Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.

441204:

yep its def c

441204:

wait nvm

KjSaif:

So we can see that the 7's were reflected yet the 5's stayed the same. What statement gets this correct? Remember that it was a reflection by the y- axis.

Yoda:

uhm

Yoda:

D?

KjSaif:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Yoda D? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) Almost. We know that it's relfected by the y-axis but the y value never changes.

KjSaif:

instead it's the x value that changes.

Yoda:

So C? Since if its Y Axis??

KjSaif:

(x,y) = (7,5) see how when it's reflected it goes from (7,5) to (-7,5) ?

KjSaif:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Yoda So C? Since if its Y Axis?? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) correct.

Yoda:

YAY

Yoda:

Thank you oosooooooooo much

KjSaif:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @Yoda Thank you oosooooooooo much \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) np lol glad I could help : )
